10 Albums We Can’t Wait to Hear This Year

If there is one thing I love about a new year (it’s only February, so it’s still new-ish), it’s new music! Some of the artists that I’ve listed below, have kept me waiting/hoping/praying for years for them to release new full-length studio albums. I am getting antsy! From John Mayer to JoJo, there are tons of new albums that are rumored to being released in 2012, and I cannot wait. I need a serious break from listening to a LMFAO song every 30 seconds on the radio.

So I’ve compiled a list of 10 bands/artists that I am pumped to have pumping through my speakers over the next 12 months. Enjoy! And if I missed any that you’re really looking forward to, let me know!

    Hi Pete,We do care about our PC users, we just didn’t know there were going to be so many. Once it became clear that there eognuh demand for it, we made it a priority and have been hard at work on it ever since.To clarify though, the free year though is for EVERYONE. Anyone who signs up for the PC list before December 7th is going to get the year free too. We know who’s been on the list and we’re not going to leave you in the cold.

Tell us what you're thinking...
